Built around included shore excursions that immerse you in each destination through exclusive access to cultural experiences, our river cruises explore the very heart of Europe: along entire length of the Danube from the North Sea to the Black Sea; the Rhine, Main and Moselle rivers in Germany; the Maas in the Netherlands; the Albert and Main-Danube canals; and the Rhône, Saône and Seine rivers in France.

All featuring luxurious cabins and suites, personalized service rivaling that of a premium hotel, fine European-style shipboard dining with a choice of dining venues, and up to four times the number of suites as other European lines, our spacious, custom-designed riverboats for 2015 include five Jewel Class ships accommodating no more than 118 passengers, and two new Inspiration Class vessels with a maximum of 130 guests.

Luxurious Ships
Maintaining the high standards of comfort and luxury set by our Jewel Class riverboats, our innovative Inspiration Class ships carry on our tradition of providing the most space per guest for an intimate, club-like atmosphere.

Our river cruise experience revolves around four cornerstones: Uncommon Access on our included shore excursions blending in-depth sightseeing with Tauck Exclusives; All-Inclusive Value, with virtually every expense included in one upfront price; Personalized Cruising based on caring service from four Tauck staff on every cruise; and the Intimate, Club-Like Atmosphere of our custom-designed riverboats
